Description
Two of the Etudes in the collection deserve particular notice: no. 3 La Campanella (The Bell) enjoyed great celebrity for the extraordinary character of its sonorities. And in the closing a-minor Etude, Liszt took his place next to many other composers with his variations on Paganini's famous capriccio theme.
The first edition of the arrangement of the six Etudes by the pianist and composer Ferruccio Busoni was published by Breitkopf & Härtel in single editions between 1914 and 1923.
